Cabin-style house achieves unthinkable price for sleepy Tassie town of Nubeena

This timber cabin-style house has achieved an unthinkable price for a sleepy Aussie beachside town.

In Tasmania’s Nubeena, the stylish property – which merges elements of a classic beach shack with a substantial, modern address – has traded for a record sum of $2.8 million. No property has ever sold for more than $1 million in the postcode. The previous record is $965,000.

Crafted by architects, the house perched over Roaring Beach Bay marries natural charm with serious design credentials. The deal with the new owner was inked on April 18.

It is ultimate escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. The sustainable four-bedroom, two-bathroom property in the fishing village is on more than 10 secluded acres of bushland with breathtaking ocean views.

Designed by firm Plain Architecture, who are known for their sustainable homes, the property is off-grid and made from reclaimed and recycled materials.

Georgie Rayner and Marnie Canvin of Harrison Agents Hobart were seeking expressions of interest of “$2.8 million-plus” for the destination home.

As stated on the listing, a pathway through the native gardens leads to the main pavilion. A covered patio leads to the sleeping pavilion and guest house.

Interiors ooze country charm with Blue Gum beams, reclaimed Cypress Pine, and recycled Oregon window frames and Jarrah floors. An expansive use of glass captures the incredible views of Roaring Beach.

The buyer and their guests will feel relaxed and at ease as they luxuriate by the deck with its sauna and private soaking tub that can also be used for ice baths.

Nubeena is a picturesque town on the Tasman Peninsula, 10km northwest of Port Arthur and within an hour-and-a-half’s drive from Hobart. It’s a popular spot for surfing, swimming and camping.
